Nice sounding repress. Good dynamics and mix levels. Recommend for you!- Edited 4 months ago

Rosalie sounds terrible, and not because it's a Bob Seger cover. The label did it on purpose, so half credit. The rest is a lot better. referencing Fighting (LP, Album, Mispress) VEL-2005
Anyone have matrix numbers for this one? Curious to what was pressed on this- Edited one year ago

Quality of the record is cool, however the music sounds a little muffled. It sounds like it was recorded in mono, as the sound separation is definitely not great. - Edited one year agoPassable copy. Pretty muffled and flat. I'm going to look for the recent reissue as all the other reissues sound fantastic. At least I have the cool US alternative cover. If you're going for a US release make sure you have Gilbert Kongs initials in the deadwax but even then I hear the reissue is better

Can anyone tell me if the new reissues will be repressed anytime soon? Thanks- Edited 2 years ago

Very impressed with this repress. Excellent sound all around, very well balanced - the guitars come screaming through at the right times! Like cyrusman, my copy is extremely quiet with almost zero surface noise. Great addition to my collection. - Edited 2 years agoIf you love this album, this is the pressing you should get. Not just this one, but any of the Mercury label versions with the 'MASTERDISK' stamp (3 options)
I had quite a journey with this record. First I got a 2010's reissue which sounded awful, then a 1975 UK first press Vertigo, which also sounded bad. Muddy and flat, and I didn't understand what was going on. Then I dig up some info about this, and came to the conclusion that I have to try with this 'MASTERDISK' pressing. Finally I can settle with this one - waited for some time to come across a reasonable offer around my area.
But you should know that this one isn't perfect either. It also feels a little flat, but still waaaay better that the first press UK Vertigo. Also I like this cover art better.
So all in all, if you are looking for the best first issue of this album, I can recommend the US Mercury pressings with the 'MASTERDISK' stamp. There are 3 different versions, I add this review to all of them. - Edited 2 years ago
